On any given Sunday you might take a ride possibly with friends to a restaurant in the country for lunch. 2 hours out and 2 hours back on the scenic route at 65 miles per hour maybe some hills and such. Just a normal afternoon but you can forget about it on an electric motorcycle because it simply doesn't have the range. Special quick charging stations (1-hour) are not to be found in rural areas and a 110 outlet would take over 5 hours to recharge the bike if the restaurant would let you plug in. Then there is the fact that you could buy 2 Bonnevilles for the price of one electric motorcycle and you see the marketing problems.
